Description: This is an interdisciplinary text that has a politically- and economically-argued case for analyzing the physical and social problem of air pollution and ill health in the context of globalization and local risks.
Synopsis: Judith A. Cherni presents a critical text of interdisciplinary research and a theoretical argued case for analyzing a physical/social problem with a political economic approach. The author identifies the convergence of global economic growth trends and the localization of environmental and health risks. Backed by scientific findings, she challenges the exclusive use of the natural sciences for explanation. Drawing also on participatory knowledge of local residents, she uses an original database of a large household survey in Houston, US.
